Saturday,March 24th
We have arrived in the hot, wet city of Bangkok. This is our first trip to Thailand(泰國). All the different smells make us want to try the food. We are going to eat something special for dinner tonight. The hotel we are staying in is cheap, and very clean. We plan to stay here for a few days, visit some places in the city, and then travel to Chiang Mai in the North.
Tuesday, March 27th
Bangkok is wonderful and surprising! The places are interesting. We visited the famous market which was on water, and saw a lot of fruits and vegetables. Everything is so colorful, and we have taken hundreds of photos already! Later today we will leave for Chiang Mai. We will take the train north, stay in Chiang Mai for two days, and then catch a bus to Chiang Rai.
Friday,March 30th
Our trip to Chiang Rai was long and boring. We visited a small village in the mountains. The village people here love the quiet life -- no computers or phones. They are the kindest people I have ever met. They always smile and say “hello”. Kathy and I can only speak a few words of Thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness. I feel good here and hope to be able to come back next year.

In Britain ,people often invite friends for a meal , a party or just coffee. People who know each other very well may visit each other’s houses without  an invitation(邀請),but if we invite new friends, usually an invitation is needed. When people invite someone to their homes , they often say ,“Would you like to come for dinner on Saturday ?” Answers are, “Thanks, we’d love to. What time?” or “I’m sorry, We’d love to ,but we have tickets for the concert.” However, it is not polite to say,“No, we wouldn’t.”
Sometimes, the British use expressions that sound like invitations but which are not invitations. For example. “You must come over for a drink sometime .” or “Let’s go out for a meal one of these days.”  These are usually just polite ways of ending a talk . They are not real invitations because they don’t mention an exact time or day. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly and the answers are ,“Yes , that would be nice .” or “OK, yes ,thanks.”

Did you notice the number on the book in a library? That number is part of the system used by libraries to organize their collections of books. And it’s used in many countries. The number on each book tells you exactly what kind of book it is. This system is also useful for knowing where to go in the library to find a book.
In this system, there are ten large groups of books. Each of these groups has its own number, such as 100, 200, etc. So, for example, any books about language will have a number 400. On the other hand, any books about history will have a number 900. So, a number in the hundreds place tells you what general group a book is in. If you find a book that has a number in the 500s, you know it is a book about science.
However, science is a big group, so the tens place is used to make a more detailed set of science books. For example, math books are included in the group of science books. Math books all have numbers between 510 and 519. Books about the history of Africa have numbers between 960 and 969.
The system uses the ones place to give a more exact limit for the subject of a book. A book on the history of South Africa will have the number 968.
As you can see, it is a simple system to use as long as you understand what the numbers mean. With this system, the library can keep its books well organized, and people can easily find the book that they want.
小題1:The reading is about       .
A.libraries
B.working in a library
C.how numbers are organized
D.how books are organized in libraries
小題2:The number system is NOT used to       .
A.find where a book is
B.tell you the title of a book
C.tell you what kind of book a book is
D.organize the collections of books in libraries
小題3:According to the reading, which sentence is TRUE?
A.The number on a book can’t be bigger than 900.
B.There are ten big groups for books in this system.
C.History books can have any number between 500 and 900.
D.This system uses both numbers and letters for some books.
小題4:A book about math can be found in the same group of books as       .
A.reference booksB.school booksC.science booksD.a(chǎn)rt books

For many in the United States, Arab-Americans are an invisible part of the population. Though Arab-Americans as a community have made great contributions to American society in fields from literature to politics to medicine, many Americans know very little about Americans of Arab backgrounds.
Arab history in the United States goes back to the late 1800’s when large numbers of Arab immigrants first began making their journey to a land known simply as “Amreeka”.
Historians generally describe Arab immigration to America in two waves. The first wave took place between 1860 and 1924.The first wave consisted of Lebanese and Syrian, and some Egyptian immigrants. These new immigrants, who were mostly Christian, came to America in search of better opportunities. Even the doomed Titanic, which set sail for America in 1912,had close to a hundred Arab passengers aboard. The majority of Arab-Americans today are descendents of the first wave of immigrants; they are the third or more generation Americans.
The second wave of immigrants followed after World War Ⅱ,caused by political unrest in the Middle East. This second wave of immigrants consists of mainly Arab Muslims(穆斯林)and continues to this day.
Arab-Americans make up 3 million of the population in the United States, according to demographers. And quite different from popular belief, 64 percent of them are American-born. Eighty-two percent of Arab-Americans are US citizens.
Arab-Americans are beyond the national average in both education and income. Education is important among Arab-Americans; 82 percent have high school diplomas, 36 percent have bachelor’s degrees or higher, and 15 percent have graduate degrees. The-median(中位數(shù)的)average income among Arab-Americans is $39,580, which is higher than the US average.
小題1:The first wave of immigrants took place because__________.
A.a(chǎn)ll Arabs were Christian at that time
B.Arabs wanted to gain higher income
C.the Second World War broke out
D.Arabs wanted to hunt for a better development
小題2:The writer of this passage mentioned Titanic__________.
A.to tell us that taking ship at that time was dangerous
B.because Titanic became a well-known disaster
C.to show us there were many Arabs flocking into America at that time
D.to inform us that Arabs are brave enough
小題3:From the last paragraph we can infer that__________.
A.Arab-Americans are much more clever than native Americans
B.the higher education you receive, the higher income you will get in America
C.Arab-Americans are hard-working people
D.The-median average income among Americans is $39,580
小題4:Which of the following sentences is TRUE?
A.Arab-Americans have made great contributions to American society only in literature.
B.Arab history in the United States is to the early 1800’s.
C.The first Arab immigration to America took place between 1860 and 1924.
D.Few of Arab-Americans are US citizens.
小題5: What would be the best title for the text?
A.Arabs in America.
B.The Two Arab Immigration Waves to America.
C.Arab-Americans, Contributions to America.
D.Arab-Americans, Education and Income.

If you have a problem with speaking, you can do several things. Listen to English as much as possible. You can learn a poem(詩) or a song by heart. You can also learn more dialogues(對話). And practice speaking with your friends as much as you can.
Many people find it difficult to listen to English. The answer is to listen as much as you can. However, don’t do too much at one time. It is better to practice listening for five minutes every day.

Later on you can practice with tapes that are more difficult.
Finally, how can you learn to write well? How do you use little words like in, on, of and for? There are two answers to this. First, do some study with new words. Keep a list of verbs like look for, look after and so on. Second, read as much English as possible. There are many things that can’t be learnt. You must see them in books many times.
